Procedure
To a stirred solution of 6,7-dimethoxy-1-propylisoquinolin-3-ol RBO 35142 (184 mg, 0.744 mmol) in THF (15 mL) in a 20 mL microwave vial equipped with a magnetic stirrer was added 3-(chloromethyl)-N-ethyl-7-fluoro-6-methoxyquinolin-2-amine hydrochloride SMA 44096 (227 mg, 0.744 mmol) at RT followed by a 2 N aq. LiOH solution (0.75 mL, 1.50 mmol) and the mixture was stirred at 155° C. for 1.5 h under microwave irradiation. The microwave vial was then cooled in an ice bath and the solid was filtered, washed with cold THF (20 mL) and taken up in CH2Cl2:MeOH=9:1 (50 mL). The organic solution was washed with brine (10 mL), dried over Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated at 40° C. under vacuum. Purification by column chromatography (SiO2, eluent CH2Cl2:MeOH=100:0 to 95:5) followed by a second purification by column chromatography (SiO2, eluent EtOAc:MeOH=100:0 to 95:5) gave 83 mg of 4-((2-(ethylamino)-7-fluoro-6-methoxyquinolin-3-yl)methyl)-6,7-dimethoxy-1-propylisoquinolin-3-ol as a brown solid. This free base was dissolved in CH2Cl2 (5 mL) in a 10 mL round-bottomed flask equipped with a magnetic stirrer before addition of a 0.49 M HCl solution in MeOH (1.0 mL). The reaction mixture was stirred for 5 min at RT then concentrated at 40° C. under vacuum to afford 4-((2-(ethylamino)-7-fluoro-6-methoxyquinolin-3-yl)methyl)-6,7-dimethoxy-1-propylisoquinolin-3-ol dihydrochloride 70 as a yellow solid (96 mg, 23% yield).
